I'm new to django and I'm trying to extend the user class in one of my apps but I'm having trouble redirecting from setting.py to the model that contains my AbstractUser
My Nproject:
-apps:
--profile:
---__init__.py
---apps.py
---forms.py
---models.py
---urls.py
---views.py
--apps1
-media
-static
-templates
-Nproject:
--__init__.py
--settings.py
--urls.py
--wsgi.py
model in apps.profile.models
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
class User(AbstractUser):
address = models.CharField(max_length=255)
def __str__(self):
return '%s %s' % (self.email, self.username)
setting.py and here I think this is my mistake
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'apps.User' #not working
I think the error is in AUTH_USER_MODEL that I do not know how to properly reference the model User
Research some sites and tell me that you should use the init.py file but it is not working
init in apps.profile
from .models import User
Error:
